Fun at the Zoo

Fun with the cousins part 2 :) Sunday we spent all day at the zoo. Monkey enjoyed having his Daddy at the zoo with him looking at all the animals and reading him the facts about the animals. He also enjoyed having his cousins there to play with him. It was a great day with family!

 Notice the crane in flight to the right. He was flying over to visit all the cousins.
 Watching the baby leopard. This lasted almost 20 minutes just watching the baby and mom play together.
 Hanging out on the concrete waiting for everyone to come out of Tropical Discovery. This was the only way that he would stop crying and be happy.
 Taking a quick nap while all the kids are playing in the water.
 Racing wood chips down the river water in the zoo playground.
 Baby Peacoks
Visiting the new elephant exhibit. Loved having Daddy there to hold him up so he could see the animals easier.
 First pictures with the polar bear! We have one of Monkey when he was around this age too! So fun!
Overall it was a great family day. I'm so glad that we were able to all go and have a good time. One great thing too is that we all got in for free because of our zoo pass! Awesome!

    1. That would be fun! We plan on doing Boo at the Zoo again too. We had so much fun last year!

      Thanks! That was a lot of work to do to get it right and it still isn't perfect but good enough!

Happy Father's Day!

Today is father's day and most people are getting together and celebrating with family. Dads, grandpas and uncles all celebrating together the joys of being a father. Maybe getting a chance to relax and enjoy just sitting around watching the kids play and being surrounded with family. That's what father's day has always looked like for us. We would always gather at my parents house. First, with my grandparents when I was growing up for dinner and a day of enjoying being together. Then as I grew older my sister and I would make sure to spend the day with our dad. Then we got married and had kids of our own and the tradition continued. We would bring all the kids and enjoy BBQing at my parents house enjoying time together. This year things are different.We can't just jump in the car and head over for a BBQ. We can't sit around on the couch or on the patio talking and laughing together. This year we are 12 hours away from where I've always been for father...

Week #2 on THM

Well it's officially the end of week 2 on Trim Healthy Mama! I have tried some more new recipes from the book and from pinterest and I'm having so much fun with it. I also order some xylitol online to save money. I didn't realize how much sweetener I would be using but when you can make sweets for any meal or snack through out the day you can use quite a bit. Favorite Meals this week E pancakes from the book! Yum! I added in frozen berries to them while cooking and they were great and the boys loved them too. They got to have the added whipped cream or syrup on theirs. Fat Stripping Frappa! OMGOSH! This is going to be my go to summer morning drink! I can see myself making one of these up first thing in the morning to get my day going and then enjoying a yummy breakfast 3 hours later. Soon as warm weather hits Hubby's schedule will be packed full daily so my mornings will start early, like 5am early! So having a breakfast at 8:30 will be perfect timing! Cheese ...
